2019-07-03fib: allow route delete with no paths and multipath=0 to remove theNeale Ranns1-6/+6
whole route Type: fix Fixes: 097fa66b Change-Id: I017ab5797670eb278c27c6e306cd8cadaacddf9d Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2019-06-18fib: fib api updatesNeale Ranns1-48/+25
Enhance the route add/del APIs to take a set of paths rather than just one. Most unicast routing protocols calcualte all the available paths in one run of the algorithm so updating all the paths at once is beneficial for the client. two knobs control the behaviour: is_multipath - if set the the set of paths passed will be added to those that already exist, otherwise the set will replace them. is_add - add or remove the set is_add=0, is_multipath=1 and an empty set, results in deleting the route. It is also considerably faster to add multiple paths at once, than one at a time: vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.11 100000 routes in .572240 secs, 174751.80 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.12 100000 routes in .528383 secs, 189256.54 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.13 100000 routes in .757131 secs, 132077.52 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.14 100000 routes in .878317 secs, 113854.12 routes/sec vat# ip_route_add_del 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.11 via 10.10.10.12 via 10.10.10.13 via 10.10.10.14 100000 routes in .900212 secs, 111084.93 routes/sec Change-Id: I416b93f7684745099c1adb0b33edac58c9339c1a Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <neale.ranns@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Vinciguerra <pvinci@vinciconsulting.com>

2018-03-20FIB Interpose SourceNeale Ranns1-0/+12
The interpose source allows the source/provider to insert/interpose a DPO in the forwarding chain of the FIB entry ahead of the forwarding provided by the next best source. For example if the API source (i.e the 'control plane') has provided an adjacency for forwarding, then an interpose source (e.g. a monitoring service) couold interpose a replicatte DPO to copy the traffic to another location AND forward using the API's adjacency. To use the interose feature an existing source (i.e FIB_SOURCE_PLUGIN_HI) cn specifiy as a flag FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_INTERPOSE and provide a DPO to interpose. One might also consider using interpose in conjunction with FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_COVER_INHERIT to ensure the interpose object affects all prefixes in the sub-tree.

2018-03-09MPLS Unifom modeNeale Ranns1-1/+1
- support both pipe and uniform modes for all MPLS LSP - all API programming for output-labels requires that the mode (and associated data) is specificed - API changes in MPLS, BIER and IP are involved - new DPO [sub] types for MPLS labels to handle the two modes.

2018-01-09DVR: run L3 output featuresNeale Ranns1-1/+1
- rename l2_bridged to is_dvr. Including on the ip.api this was new in the 18.01 release so no compatability issues. - steal the free space in vnet_buffer_opaque_t for use with flags. - run the ipX-output feature arc from the DVR DPO Change-Id: I040e5976d1dbe076fcdda3a40a7804f56337ce3f Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-11-07UDP Encapsulation.Neale Ranns1-0/+2
A UDP-encap object that particiapates in the FIB graph and contributes DPO to teh output chain. It thereofre resembles a tunnel but without the interface. FIB paths (and henace routes) can then be created to egress through the UDP-encap. Said routes can have MPLS labels, hence this also allows MPLSoUPD. Encap is uni-directional. For decap, one still registers with the UDP port dispatcher. Change-Id: I23bd345523b20789a1de1b02022ea1148ca50797 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>

2017-10-05Distributed Virtual Router SupportNeale Ranns1-0/+1
A distributed virtual router works by attmpeting to switch a packet, but on failing to find a local consumer (i.e. the packet is destined to a locally attached host) then the packet is sent unmodified 'upstream' to where the rest of the 'distributed' router is present. When L3 switching a packet this means the L2 header must not be modifed. This patch adds a 'l2-bridge' object to the L3 FIB which re-injects packets from the L3 path back into the L2 path - use with extreme caution.

2017-09-11FIB table add/delete APINeale Ranns1-1/+0
part 2; - this adds the code to create an IP and MPLS table via the API. - but the enforcement that the table must be created before it is used is still missing, this is so that CSIT can pass. Change-Id: Id124d884ade6cb7da947225200e3bb193454c555 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>

2017-07-18FIB path preferenceNeale Ranns1-1/+2
Paths are given a preference, lowest value is 'best'. Only paths that are up are up contribute to fprwarding - that's unchanged. What's new is that of the path's that re up only those that have the best preference contribute. A poor man's primary and backup. It's not true primary/backup function because the FIB must converge before the lower preference paths are used.

2017-04-07MPLS McastNeale Ranns1-0/+4
1 - interface-DPO Used in the Data-plane to change a packet's input interface 2 - MPLS multicast FIB entry Same as a unicast entry but it links to a replicate not a load-balance DPO 3 - Multicast MPLS tunnel Update MPLS tunnels to use a FIB path-list to describe the endpoint[s]. Use the path-list to generate the forwarding chain (DPOs) to link to . 4 - Resolve a path via a local label (of an mLDP LSP) For IP multicast entries to use an LSP in the replication list, we need to decribe the 'resolve-via-label' where the label is that of a multicast LSP. 5 - MPLS disposition path sets RPF-ID For a interface-less LSP (i.e. mLDP not RSVP-TE) at the tail of the LSP we still need to perform an RPF check. An MPLS disposition DPO performs the MPLS pop validation checks and sets the RPF-ID in the packet. 6 - RPF check with per-entry RPF-ID An RPF-ID is used instead of a real interface SW if index in the case the IP traffic arrives from an LSP that does not have an associated interface.
